[quote=Anonymous]We recently met some very nice folks who live in our neighborhood. They have a son a few years younger than ours, and they seem nice enough. They have invited us to watch a movie a few times down in their basement on a weekend evening. I just don't really feel like watching a movie in someone's basement. That feels a little high-school-ish to me and, well, not really fun? Plus, our DS would be getting tired and I don't know what I am supposed to do with a 5 yo while we are ostensibly watching an (adult) movie over at someone else's house. (?) I get that they'd like to stay in, prob b/c they want to put their (1yo) DSr down to bed. I totally get that. It makes sense from their point of view. But, just doesn't seem to really work out from our point of view? Is it us? Maybe we and they just aren't really clicking? I guess I'm not really understanding why someone would invite us to that, knwoing we have a young child, and what are we supposed to do with the child while watching an adult movie? I've invited them to other things (family type things -- things that are fine to bring along their son), but each time, they turn it around and are like, 'How about you guys come on over for a movie?" I am just kind of scratching my head of this one. . . I've never really been invited to watch so many movies at one person's house in a long time! Like, since high school or so! But maybe I am just out of it, and people do this type of thing all the time? It just seems to be kind of a strange event to keep repeatedly issuing invitations for, for people our age, for people whom we've only recently met. (?) [/quote]
